World Rugby has exonerated Wales for missing George North’s second knock to the head and allowing the winger to play out the Six Nations loss to England.

Rugby’s governing body launched a review of North’s medical treatment after watching video on Saturday, a day after the match in Cardiff. He accidentally banged heads with a teammate in a second-half tackle and appeared to lose consciousness.
